Does anyone else find it strange how similar Ricky Gervais and Elmo sound at times…?

Wow. Who would have thought you could have so much fun poking Elmo in the chest and generally causing mayhem with a muppet during an interview? Oh yeah – everyone.

According to the YouTube description of the video, “The full episode airs this November when ‘Street’ opens with its 40th anniversary.”
